Chapter 1814: Disappearance of the Abyssal Passageway

Tang Wulin immediately communicated his thoughts through his military communicator.

“Alright,” Yu Guanzhi immediately replied. He had developed a great deal of trust in Tang Wulin.

Regardless of whether Eternal Heaven was a one-time usage weapon or a super weapon that could be fired multiple times, that wasn’t important anymore; the important thing was that the Blood River Godslayer Array had been broken.!

This contribution alone was enough to make up for the fact that the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy had stolen Eternal Heaven, and even more importantly, it showed that their heart was still in the right place.

Only after a full 10 minutes had passed did the artillery fire finally cease, and at this point, the terrain had already been completely transformed.

The earth was riddled with craters, and the area where the abyssal army had previously been situated had caved in by several hundred meters.

However, once the dust settled, everyone was stunned to discover that the abyssal passageway had disappeared!

The powerful beings of the Tang Wulin and Shrek Academy were hovering in mid-air, releasing their spiritual power to scour the landscape, only to discover that the aura of the abyssal plane had also vanished.

This discovery immediately dampened everyone’s excitement.

A set abyssal passageway was naturally quite terrifying, but at the very least, its location was known. In contrast, a vanished abyssal passageway was far more fearsome.

The main concern was whether it would appear behind the human army.

Yu Guanzhi had already arrived with many powerful beings from the military and the Battle God Hall.”What happened? How could the abyssal passageway have disappeared? None of our surveillance soul tools have managed to ascertain where it’s gone,” Yu Guanzhi said in an urgent voice.

“Calm down, Commander; let’s think about this logically. Back when the abyssal passageway was under the protection of the Blood River Godslayer Array, it was only able to move very slowly. That’s definitely not an act; if it had been capable of moving faster, it would’ve already made a rush for our defensive line when that branch of the abyssal army stormed the Western Legion. As such, that should be its maximal speed, which means that even if it has moved away, it definitely couldn’t have gone far, and there’s certainly no way it would’ve crossed our defensive line.

“On top of that, it shouldn’t be that easy for the abyssal passageway to move. Otherwise, why is it that the abyssal passageway being guarded by the Blood God Legion for all these years has never moved? This undoubtedly has something to do with the seal, but it never showed any signs of movement even before the seal was set up. Hence, I think the abyssal passageway’s ability to move is directly related to the Blood River Godslayer Array.”

Yu Guanzhi gradually calmed down upon hearing this analysis. “You don’t mean…”

Both of them cast their eyes toward the crater not far away, while Chen Xinjie mused, “There’s a very good chance that it’s sunk down into the earth rather than moved anywhere; it must’ve withdrawn toward the abyssal passageway to buy some time.”

Everyone was enlightened upon hearing this, and Yu Guanzhi immediately declared, “Then we’ll dig down until we find it! We have to take advantage of this opportunity to seal that passageway.”

The mecha corps that had accompanied him to the scene immediately rushed toward the crater at his behest.

Meanwhile, Yu Guanzhi gently tugged on Tang Wulin’s sleeve, and a gentle layer of soul power enveloped both of them.

“Sect Master Tang, there’s something I want to ask you,” he said as he appraised Tang Wulin intently.

“Go ahead,” Tang Wulin prompted.

Yu Guanzhi asked, “Can Eternal Heaven be used a second time?”

Tang Wulin shook his head in response. “We’re not sure of that at the moment. The side-effects are far too severe; Head Researcher Ling had actually already perished during the firing process, but she was resurrected by the Holy Spirit Douluo. Even so, her injuries are very severe, and we don’t know how much energy Eternal Heaven has left, so I can’t give you a definitive answer.”

Yu Guanzhi was silent for a moment before continuing, “If it’s possible, then make the preparations; no one knows what’s going to happen next.”

“I understand,” Tang Wulin replied with a nod.

He naturally wasn’t going to tell the whole truth to Yu Guanzhi. After all, this concerned the future of the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, and he really was unsure of whether Eternal Heaven could be used a second time.

At the very least, it seemed quite implausible based on Ling Zichen’s condition.

Even with Yali treating her, the fact of the matter was that she had been clinically dead for a short while, and it would take a very long time to recover from the aftereffects.

Under these circumstances, how could they risk using Eternal Heaven again?

The excavation process had already begun, but even after digging over 100 meters deep into the ground, there was still no sign of the abyssal passageway’s aura, and that was very disturbing to everyone.

Yu Guanzhi issued an order for all of the human army’s surveillance soul tools to be activated to search for the abyssal passageway around the site of the bombing.

No one had anticipated that something like this would happen.

The Blood River Godslayer Array had finally been destroyed, but the abyssal passageway had disappeared. Furthermore, all of the most powerful beings of the abyss and the Holy Spirit Cult had also vanished.

Judging from what Gu Yuena had told him, Tang Wulin knew that the Eternal Heaven blast hadn’t managed to destroy the abyssal passageway. Otherwise, there would’ve been no way for the abyssal energy to flow back into it.

Currently, the most pressing concern was that no one knew where the abyssal passageway had gone; it was like a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.

After searching for three whole days, there were still no new discoveries made. Virtually the entire northernmost region had been searched, but not even a single abyssal creature had been found.

The Southern Legion finally arrived and became part of the defensive line.

After several bouts of analysis and discussion, the Blood God Legion, Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, the Spirit Pagoda, the Battle God Hall, and the military had arrived at a consensus.

As a plane that was connected with the Douluo Plane, there had to be set coordinates to the abyssal plane.

It seemed that Eternal Heaven really had severely ravaged the abyssal army, forcing them into retreat, and in order to prevent this passageway from being sealed by the human army, the abyssal plane had decided to flee.

They had closed this passageway voluntarily, and this was why the human army was unable to find it.

Under these circumstances, there would be no way for the human army to track down the abyssal passageway unless the abyssal plane opened it again. However, if they did reopen the passageway, there was a very good chance that it would open up in the distance as that was where the coordinates were positioned.

Having reached this conclusion, the consensus was to begin setting up defensive infrastructure and a sealing array around the site where the abyssal passageway had disappeared.

Even though the seal wouldn’t be as effective as it wouldn’t be set up directly on the abyssal passageway, it was still better than nothing.

At the very least, with some defensive infrastructure set up, the human army would be bought sufficient time if the abyssal passageway were to be opened again.

None of the eight major legions dared to let their guard down, and following a meeting, it was decided that they would temporarily remain in the northernmost region until the defensive infrastructure around the site was complete, which was projected to take at least half a year.

At the same time, former Sea God Legion Commander Chen Xinjie, Central Legion Commander Yu Guanzhi, Western Legion Commander Dong Zi’an, and several other high-ranking military officials had issued a joint official request to the federation to resume research into super weapons.
